The technical performance is convincing. The display is brilliant, Camera with 12MP and HD video recording unbeatable. Sound whether the phone or listening to music excellent. Very positive is the quick construction of the pages on the Internet.
Navigation software is working properly, the connection to the satellite is built quickly. That's what I often helped out of trouble when I was traveling on foot or by a foreign car without GPS. Pleasant is that it no Internet is required, which can save charges. This also applies to other countless apps that do not require Internet connection, such as dictionaries in all possible languages. Convenient for the coming holiday :).
But the best in the phone is the battery. While making other smartphones after a few hours of intense economical or after 2 days use slack, keeping my N8 with intensive Internet and as video usage up to 2 days and during normal operation one week. Thus one knows and loves NOKIA !!
The only which I had a little trouble, was the new music player of Nokia. It lacks the ability to play your own music folder directly but only by album or artist. But I have solved, that I have installed my Jukebox LCG, this player works properly with the N8 and has all the features I need.
I think I'm going to the device, not least because of the sound quality, long may have my joy.
From me in any case: full purchase recommendation!
